Recommendation Justification

Why?

Example

Marion should set up a page for each subject, with Vera database descriptions on first page, in rich text type box, with as much white space as possible and clean fonts (no italics), in two-column page layout.

Simple for Marion to add, simple for librarians to edit, copy, etc., provides a clean start for librarians

Use of LibGuides is optional.

Some guides are too complex for LibGuides, and some creators will prefer html

 

All publication types, subject pages, databases cheatsheets, etc. will be called "Research guides" instead.

Users don't care what they're called...  Simplify!

 

Use "friendly" URLs (shortcut URLs) for all pages.

Easier for users to remember, cleaner looking on page
